Designed in the USSR: 1950-1989 - From the collection of the Moscow Design Museum - Grand Format

Designed in the USSR : 1950-1989 draws back the Iron Curtain to reveal a fascinating, charming and rarely seen world of Soviet design, featuring more than 350 products and graphics from the unique collection of the Moscow Design Museum - an institution dedicated to the preservation of Russia's design heritage. From children's toys, homewares and fashion, to posters, electronics and space-race ephemera, each object reveals something of life under Communist rule.
Designed in the USSR offers a micro-to-macro tour of the functional, kitsch, politicized and often avant-garde designs, compiled to create a compelling view into this largely undocumented period in history.
